lol. those times sitting in the com room jamming wit my bro. that made me love bass... the boom.. heh. soon learnt a lot of other songs soon learnt 'that thing you do' - the wonders. still nice songs to play.
I would say I did a collection of first songs, as I had to learn how to play bass pronto to prepare for a gig.
The three songs were:
1) Zero (Smashing Pumpkins)
2) Enter Sandman (Metallica)
3) Somebody to Love (Jefferson Airplane)
4) Sweet Child of Mine (Guns and Roses)
5) Knocking on Heaven's Door (Guns and Roses)
Worst thing was, I had to learn how to play AND sing Enter Sandman too.....I've never been more nervous in my life during any gig, man.....
I have to admit, I was initially attracted to the instrument by a certain Mike Dirnt from Green Day. I initially learnt Green Day's "Waiting" then going on to a learn a variety of their older ( and imo better ) material.
